Your calls are needed now to save lives!  Call and ask others to call.


As of July 10, 2014, over 90 Palestinians in Gaza have been killed in three days of intensified bombing by Israel – more than 22 of those killed are children. No Israelis have been killed. Israel is now poised for a deadly ground invasion <http://america.aljazeera.com/articles/2014/7/10/gaza-israel-war.html> . 



Please tell Congress & Pres. Obama: 

As a taxpayer and moral human being, you want them to demand that Israel ends its attacks on Gaza and that all U.S. funding and support for Israel’s occupation of Palestine stop immediately.

● Israel’s aerial bombing of Gaza is a war crime <http://www.aljazeerah.info/News/2014/July/9%20n/41%20Palestinians%20Killed,%20Over%20300%20Injured,%20in%20Israeli%20War-Criminal%20Air%20Strikes%20on%20Gaza%20Civilian%20Population,%20Targeting%20Total%20Families,%20July%209,%202014.htm>  because it targets a civilian <http://www.maannews.net/eng/ViewDetails.aspx?ID=711881>  population, it is disproportionate force and it is collective punishment.  
Israel has the 4th most powerful military in the world; Palestinians have no army, no navy, no air force.  They have been subjected to a deadly blockade <http://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/nov/22/gaza-uninhabitable-blockade-united-nations>  and periodic bombing by Israel for over 8 years.  


●  <http://thehill.com/blogs/congress-blog/foreign-policy/177199-hold-israel-accountable-with-leahy-law> US law demands that no military aid be granted to governments that uses its weapons against civilians, exactly what Israel did in June in the West Bank <http://www.intifada-palestine.com/2014/07/searing-hypocrisy-west/>  and is doing now in Gaza.
